Suzuki Baleno Towing Specifics
The Suzuki Baleno was first introduced in 2015 by the Japanese manufacturer as a supermini car, with plenty of towing capabilities. We will cover the towing specifics of this model below.
Suzuki Baleno Towbar Electrics Kits
It is recommended that all tow bars fitted to a Suzuki Baleno vehicle are done so with a dedicated electrics kit, rather than a universal electrics kit. A dedicated electrics kit not only ensures all modern features such as; trailer stability and parking sensors are functional, but also helps to keep your vehicle's warranty unaffected.
We offer both universal and dedicated electrics kits for the Suzuki Baleno vehicle towbars, but be aware that universal electrics kits can invalidate any manufacturer warranty your vehicle has and may also require a bypass relay.
Check your Suzuki warranty for more information.
Bypass Relays
All tow bars for the Suzuki Baleno models will require a bypass relay, if universal electrics are fitted.
A bypass relay works by powering what it is you are towing through transferring power straight from the battery instead of taking too much current away from your vehicle.
Whereas a dedicated system works in harmony with your vehicle's ECU and all of its functions.
Coding
This is the coding of the ECU to accept the dedicated system, this updates your vehicles software to run smoothly with the new towbar.
All Suzuki Baleno models will not require coding.
Coding is used to update your vehicles software in order for it to run coherently with the new towbar through the dedicated electrics.
Bumper Cuts
Depending on the towbar, Suzuki Baleno models will require a bumper cut. A bumper cut is when a fraction of the vehicle's rear bumper is cut in order to fit the towbar.
All Suzuki Baleno models have towbars that require non visible and visible bumper cuts.
Nose Weight
Nose weight is the amount of weight pushing down on the tow ball, it is important not to exceed the nose weight set on the tow bar, failure to do so could damage the car chassis and/or tow bar mounting points. Nose weight varies depending on the towbar you choose and are displayed under each tow bar below.
All Suzuki Baleno models have a nose weight of 60kg up to 75kg.
Towing Weight
Towing weight is the weight that a Suzuki Baleno vehicle can tow safely, without any risk of damaging the vehicle. Towing weights are bar specific and displayed below each towbar.
For all Suzuki Baleno vehicles, the towbars have a towing weight capacity of 1000kg up to 1200kg.
You will need to check the towing limit for your Suzuki Baleno vehicle model as it may not be able to tow up to the weight limit that the tow bar can tow.
